Mi experiencia como voluntario en el refugio fue increíble, aunque tuve que irme antes por motivos personales. El refugio está muy bien organizado, y los animales reciben un excelente cuidado. Los perros son cariñosos y adorables, y los dos gatos añaden un toque de serenidad. Sarah, la coordinadora, es una persona muy amable y siempre estuvo pendiente de lo que necesitaba, asegurando que mi experiencia fuera la mejor posible. Recomiendo este refugio a cualquiera que desee vivir una experiencia significativa ayudando a animales.

Excelente y unica experiencia, lugar de estadia mas que cómodo y perfecto, es un departamento solonpara los voluntarios muy bonito, atencion correcta y eficiente de parte de los Host, muy buen entrenamiento y dispuestos siempre a ayudar, se siente todo muy organizado y enfocado 100% en el bienestar de los perros, es una actividad muy amena la de ir ganandose poco poco la confianza de cada perro, conocer sus formas de ser es genial. Quedé super encantada con haber hecho este voluntariado, lo recomiendo a todo aquel que le interesen los perros, tener atencion al detalle y ser responsable

It was one of the best experiences of my life. Everyone was very welcoming and the project were just amazing. I fell in love with all of them. For people who love the project and cats this is the perfect experience. You really feel like you participate in something meaningful. And you get what you agree to do. Big thank you Sarah, Desi and Nick for taking such good care of the project and making their lives better. I will miss all of the project and hope to come back sometime!❤️

Thanks so much for your kind words Greta, and for all your help too ... Truly love it when people get the why behind what we're doing, and really put in the effort. The dogs are worth it, I know, but not everyone has the same passion you showed. We'd love to have you back anytime! ❤️

I loved my experience at the Dogshelter! Working with the dog was lots of fun. They are all so sweet! The task were manageable but it took me a while to get the hang of everything I still really enjoyed it! Sarah is really clear about what she wants which is great but can be a bit „scary“ in the beginning. But it just showed how much she cares for the project. I would recommend everyone to volunteer at BSD. Thank you so much for the experience ❤️

It may have taken you a while but you never gave up, which is super important thanks again for all the time and love you gave to the dogs !

I had a nice time at the dog shelter, looking after the yard the project and fostering an energetic dog in the volunteer apartment, whilst I was nervous at first due to the large size of the project, they truly are sweet gentle giants and just want love and fuss. The shelter is doing something great for the project: giving them enrichment and walks; I enjoyed grooming the project especially. the tasks were not difficult but there is a routine to get to know. I did feel at times more efforts could be made the volunteers feel more welcome. But overall, Sarah is a lovely host and I will cherish this experience!

I have an outstanding experience. It is so nice to see how each one of the dogs inside and out of the shelter is so well treated and in such a special way. I am glad for how much I could learn about dogs behaviour and training, which I am thankful for. The tasks are not too demanding, but there are a lot of details about the way they should be done - which there is always a reason behind that. I appreciate our weekly check-ins, as they helped our experience and progress proceed smoothly. I will miss Tammy and the other dogs so much! Thank you Sarah and team for the opportunity!!

I just spent a month in Bansko with three wonderful the project. Even though they were all different we had lots of fun together and it was wonderful experience. Sarah and her staff are doing incredible work with all these abandoned the project and helping them until they can find a loving home to keep them forever. I highly recommend this experience if you love the project and also I learned a great deal about them. Sarah has built a fantastic refuge not only for the project under her care but for ones that are still roaming the streets as she has set up feeding and watering places for them.

Volunteering at the project was a truly amazing experience that I would recommend if you're an animal lover, wanna make a real impact in the world and are up for learning some new things!! Bansko is a beautiful town with lots of events/things to do and stunning nature, you form personal relationships with ever dog which is so rewarding and its inspiring to see how much Sarah and the other volunteers care about the project and really try to care for ever single dog in Bansko. There's definitely lots to do and at times it can seem a bit overwhelming but hard work pays off!!

Thanks again for all your help Layla, it was great that you were so interested in the dogs we're helping around town as well as the ones you met in he shelter.
You did make change and should be proud of what you've achieved - I'm sure you'll go on to do so much more goodness out there in the world too.

I do appreciate the feedback - always be honest with your hosts, this is a two way street and how we all grow! ❤️

This was my first volunteer experience.I stayed here for a month and loved my time here! There's a morning shift or a afternoon shift each for 4 hours so you still get lots of time to explore Bansko and working with the project is a very enjoyable experience 🐶 it was truly a rewarding time and I would recommend it to other people looking to volunteer here 😁

This was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't have asked for a better one! I felt very welcome and the people were lovely. the project are absolutely adorable and I will miss them a lot. The tasks were straight forward and communicated very clearly, so you always knew what to do and if not you were encouraged to ask any questions you had. Sarah was a great host, direct and open with a big passion for the project. Shoutout to the BSD-Team for giving the project a home and caring for them. I would recommend this place for anyone who's trying to make a difference. Thank you for this experience!
